Mojo Barista

We've also heard the less sympathetic, the ones who say, "Fer crying out loud, shut your whining and JUST WRITE."

So for those with crazy glue in their imaginariums, I offer a nice, tall, drink free of charge, from the Mojo Barista. Take your pick.

Caramelotta Tension, Tall, with Whip (and chains)
-for those scenes that fall flat because nothing bad is happening, and you're being too nice to your main character.

Fat-free, caffeine-free, gluten-free, soy-free, dairy-free cup of nothing
-for those that need to whittle down the adverbs, the modifiers, the useless sentences that repeat what you already wrote, like those useless sentences that repeat what you already wrote

Full-fat moccacchino with optional pound of melted chocolate
-for the "sexy-times" scene you're afraid to write Hot tea with a twist of lemon, lime, orange, and a side of pretzels
-for those way too linear story lines

Burger n' shake blended 4000 calorie meal-in-a-cup
-for those that keep escaping the writing chair to get a bite to eat. Contains all the food groups writers need (calories, caffeine, chocolate, salt, and a shot of vodka). Spoiler Jave-Frappe-Mega (extra shot of curdled milk)-for the ending to your novel that you wish you knew, but can't think of yet. Spoileriffic!

Well, there you go. If you ever need some mojo, feel free to tweet me @lydiaykang and I'll send you a hot cuppa something that might make you vomit, but WILL make you write.

Gave me a laugh this morning. For me, it is simply seat of my britches to the seat of my chair and read the last page of my WIP, then ask myself: "What is the most unexpected thing that could happen or be said next ... and try to make it work on the written page.

So of course this was - IS - so fantastic and looking around for it's own website to explore the many other java-licious ways to spice up, tear down darlings and bend time backwards to reduce the number of flashbacks in the story from 25 to 5. :-)

You are very inspiring dear.I just discovered your blog and really like it.! I just shared my Clozette Fashion Finds on my blog. If you have a minute, I would love to hear your comment. Also, let me know if you want us to follow each other. I will definitely follow you back...
